Pain comes to every human. It is a vital aspect of life in the physical world. How one person reacts to pain may differ from another. This you call a “threshold,” reflecting one’s tolerance for pain. Some can take very little, and others seemingly quite a lot. Why the difference? [...]
The jingle of a bell causes repeated actions in a well-trained dog. “Pavlovian responses” you do call these, but are humans not so very well trained, indeed? Do you not respond robotically, as if programmed, to such a wide variety of stimuli? Do you not think that it is mandatory [...]
Sitting on a park bench, you watch the mass of humanity pass by. So many different sizes, shapes, and manners of dressing. All seem so very different from you, but what if you could see beyond the exterior? What if that which causes your first impressions were not there? Would [...]
Do you tire of hearing the same messages here each day? Do the words begin to repeat themselves? If so, then why do you return to repeat the experience? It is quite simple. Yours is a world of many low vibrations. These messages of love and oneness … these messages [...]
Resurrection … you know this as a rising from the dead, but what is it that arises? It is the spirit, which has never died, and can never die. The body and all physical matter are ephemeral. Yes, material things experience death, but you are not a material object. You [...]
Mystery schools … ancient teachings from eras past … do you not see the similarities in the messages? And the messages come to you now from the unseen world unchanged: There is but one Mind guiding all that is, bringing order where otherwise there would be chaos, through the application [...]
You wait for miracles, yet what is a miracle? Something so outside the ordinary that you think it impossible ...a special healing ... an apparition ... If these are miracles, then miracles happen all the time. You become so entrained to the lower vibrations of human limitations that you fail [...]
What good is a friend, if you love them not? A friend is one you practice upon--one with whom you practice patience, kindness, compassion, and non-judgment. You would wish them to display the same towards you, but that is not always the case. And that, my friend, is the value [...]
A treasure trove of gifts awaits you.You merely need to ask.To trust in all Creation,This is your greatest task.The world is ripe for picking --The fullest low-hung fruitBecomes yours for the takingWhen your trust is absolute.From where does come this bounty?From where does it arise?The answer, when you know your [...]
A manifestation of the Life Force -- God -- that is what you are, and that is what ALL things are, for all things are Spirit. Whether in your thoughts, your mind's visions, or before your very eyes, all is a manifestation of Consciousness. So, is a spirit-guide real if [...]
All around you are angels. Do you think the world consists only of that which you see? You are swimming in a sea of vibrating energy, but, my friends, you are that very energy. We cannot expect you to understand that which is beyond your current ability to perceive, but [...]
There is only one Consciousness… one Mind. All is a vibration of the one Consciousness. This is why you read of a spectrum of consciousness. There is only variety in vibration of the One Divine Mind. The body identified with your spirit is imbued with the Consciousness that resonates perfectly [...]
A note from Suzanne: I am heading out of the country for a week, skipping over quite a few time zones. There may not be a posting from Sanaya as I adjust to the new schedule and catch up on sleep, and the postings for the rest of the week [...]
Where is God in times of trouble? God is the loving gesture from a friend … the gentle touch upon an arm that says, “You are not alone.” God is in the gathering of loved ones to give each other strength. God is in the beauty of a flower that [...]
Silence is the order of the day. Speak little and listen for once. Hear what others have to say. Hear the voices in your head. Hear the beating of your heart. All around you information sings, yet so often you do not hear it as you jump to put in [...]
By helping others do you grow.In this way true love you show.You set aside the self a whileAnd help another soul to smile.To volunteer your time is great.Some may say you are a saint.But let it not go to your head,The many things that may be said.You know inside that [...]
See yourself as perfection, not as an imperfect body. Allow the healing energy that creates the universe to be you, to flow through you, and enliven you. You need not always run to doctors who practice their craft by fixing what is broken—by putting a patch on a symptom. Know [...]
Hirsute and unintelligible, the early forms of man did wander the earth much like the animals in the jungle, concerned primarily with survival. Now clothed and well fed, you have institutions in place which virtually ensure your security and survival from day to day. Evolution is a good thing, and [...]
Note from Suzanne: I heard the first three lines of a poem, then the fourth one didn’t come. After a short pause, I heard the following:Do you see how words limit you? There is not an appropriate phrase to end this verse in a manner which is pleasing. The very [...]
You look upon the covers of your magazines in a store and feel discouragement. So many are drawn to pictures of weapons or to improving exterior appearances. So few seem drawn to things of the Spirit. “Where are the magazines touting love and charity?” The consciousness of humanity as a [...]
Berries on a branch Hang heavy and low.The fruit of the treeSo abundant does it grow.You reach up and pluck it.It’s there for you to take.With all of this sweetness, Just what will you make?All the world is yours,Just like the tree that’s filled with fruit.Yet so many wander blindlyAnd [...]
Forget the past. It was a moment of the present that is no longer present and no longer affects you unless you hold onto it so tightly that you fail to see the beauty in the present moment. Yes, certainly you can learn from those past moments, but not by [...]
Just as a pebble sinks to the bottom of a lake, your conscious mind sinks into the depths of the Pure Consciousness of which it is a part. Deeper and deeper you go as you relax the body and allow the thoughts to drift away on the surface. There in [...]
Frost on the windowObscures the viewSo thick at timesNo light can get through.But take a fingerAnd wipe a small holePeer insideAnd lo! There's the soul!What icy exteriorDoes obscure what's inside?Why so muchFrom your True Self do you hide?Take a large clothAnd clear the whole pane.Never more hide the LightNot from [...]
Wish upon a falling star …Guess the number in a jar …All seems haphazard, nothing sure.Is nothing certain evermore?Yes, one truth stands o’er the rest.Of time and doubt it passes the test:You come from Spirit – know this now.Into your heart this Truth allow.The stars you see come from this [...]
Scattered thoughts run about the mind as if at random. Pay them no heed. The brain wants to chatter incessantly, but beyond the brain lies your connection with All That Is—with the very Source of those thoughts which run here and there. Do not eschew those thoughts, for they, like [...]
Truth is an elusive thing, for in your reality all is based upon perception, and perception is different from every angle. What is blue to you may not be the same as blue to your brother, yet how would you know? So often you do insist that your truth is [...]
